There’s no “speeding up” or “slowing down” of film, it’s shot how it is. You can run the camera slow or fast and get the result that when played at 24fps you get fast or slow motion. Toy Story was rendered frame-by-frame for standard 24fps projection.
Quick question though, I know that when films are in other countries that speak English, the Region code (PAL for example) speeds/ pitches the film up on DVD and VHS. Being that this is an Australian film reel that is being scanned was the same process applied before it was given to Australian theaters or would it be the same speed as a North American reel and the speeding up/ pitching up only happens after the movie is released on DVD/ VHS in English speaking European countries? PAL is the region code for Australia as I found out.
I would think so, yes.
Before DVD release or after?
